I've just been using the HANS III with their quick release. I don't ever release it though, it just stays attached to the helmet.

Gotcha ... I've replaced all of the arms and couldn't imagine attempting it with the weight of the car on them. I'm going to be swapping them all out again to get rid of the poly bushings.

Block out all that noise, any set of coilovers is gonna be good for your street driven car. Whatever you choose will be stiffer than stock, so if you're looking for plush then stick with stock.

I believe the pump is integrated into the front cover of the transmission. Which also happens to be where the lines connect to it. You've definitely researched this far more than I have though

Rear main seal - install dry or wet?

As the title says, are these seals meant to be installed dry, or a light film of oil on the crank? I can't seem to find any info.

Thanks for the tips!

Lining it up to drill the hole in the bumper was the part I was concerned about, ya only get one shot at it. I didn't think about making reference points, that's a great idea.

I'm not going to say that the TSP is "bad", I'll just say I much prefer the CHE. I'm sure each is good for a certain application, and it's probably a matter of matching it up to your build.
